Erdős Problem 357: Little O Version Symm

Let h(n)h(n) be the maximal kk such that there exist integers 1a1akn1 \le a_1 \leq \dotsc \leq a_k \le n such that all sums of the shape uivai\sum_{u \le i \le v} a_i are distinct. How does h(n)h(n) grow? Can we find a (good) explicit function gg such that h=o(g)h = o(g) ?

Statement artifacts, not proofs

These records expose exact Lean propositions and statement-only wrappers. Defining a proposition does not supply a proof of it. A placeholder-bearing target also contains no proof. Elaboration checks syntax and types; it does not certify that a formalization perfectly captures every nuance of the informal problem.
